I'm curious about what's going on with my health. I've been experiencing watery eyes, a runny and stuffed nose, body aches, an itchy throat and nose, and headaches that all come on suddenly. I usually take cetirizine, and it seems to clear up these symptoms within a day. But the problem is they keep coming back every couple of weeks or even sooner. Plus, I end up sneezing like 60 to 70 times in a day, which is just exhausting. And these really intense headaches are happening every other day too. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

Monitoring progress is crucial when treating lymph node tuberculosis (TB). Here are some indicators to assess your progress: *Clinical Indicators* 1. *Reduced swelling*: Lymph node swelling should decrease in size. 2. *Less pain*: Pain and tenderness in the affected area should subside. 3. *Improved overall health*: You should experience increased energy levels and a general feeling of well-being. *Laboratory Tests* 1. *ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test*: This test measures inflammation. A decrease in ESR levels indicates improvement. 2. *CRP (C-Reactive Protein) test*: This test measures inflammation and infection. A decrease in CRP levels indicates improvement. 3. *Chest X-ray*: This test evaluates lung health. Improvement in lung condition indicates effective treatment. 4. *Sputum smear microscopy*: This test checks for TB bacteria in sputum. A negative result indicates treatment effectiveness. *Treatment Duration* Typically, lymph node TB treatment lasts for 6-9 months. Your doctor will assess your progress and adjust treatment duration accordingly. *Follow-up Appointments* Regular follow-up appointments with your doctor are crucial to monitor progress, adjust treatment, and address any concerns. After 2 months of treatment, you should start experiencing some improvement in symptoms. However, it's essential to continue treatment as prescribed and attend follow-up appointments to ensure complete recovery.

I've been dealing with a runny nose all year round and have seen quite a few doctors about it. One suggested I take Montelukast regularly, but I'm not really into the idea of taking medication every day. Is there something I can take just once that might help instead?
A runny nose is a common symptom of allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever, which is an allergic reaction to allergens in the air.you can try with avoidance of allergens
